Babysitter in Glasgow abandoned disabled girl outside
Quote:
A babysitter has admitted abandoning a disabled six-year-old outside overnight in temperatures just above freezing, wearing only socks and a dressing gown.
Glasgow Sheriff Court heard the girl, who is deaf and blind, suffered hypothermia and almost died.
Kate Harper, 26, strapped the youngster into her pram and went to sleep in a nearby house after a fireworks party in Kingspark, Glasgow, last November.

Re: Babysitter in Glasgow abandoned disabled girl outside
On the face of it, how could anyone (parents and/or babysitter) be so irresponsible!!!

Re: Babysitter in Glasgow abandoned disabled girl outside

 Yes, let's make a cheap joke/point at the expense of

I wasn't me that was criticizing the parents in this case.

Just another case, not relevant to this poor child's misfortune...

Re: Babysitter in Glasgow abandoned disabled girl outside
Seriously, if there was ever a motivation to bring back forced sterilization, it's morons like this....

Which is why the sterilisation comment was thrown about, would she be any better with her own?

Glasgow in November?
It's a miracle that the kid didn't die.

Who cares about Ms. Parker's background or whether it's a 'first offence' or whatever.
Couple of years in the chokey for that cow!

I don't think that they knew she had taken her out.
